Description

Explore the deep connection between Italian Old Master art and the British Romantic era in this scholarly study by Maureen McCue. Following Napoleon's campaigns in Italy, a massive influx of Old Master art entered Britain, becoming a symbol of national prestige. This book examines how these artworks influenced the writing of Romantic period authors. Dr. McCue looks at how the reception of these pieces allowed writers to connect Italian art with the imagination, as well as the social, political, and commercial realities of the time. The research covers a wide range of sources, including poetry, plays, novels, and travel writing. By analyzing exhibition catalogues, early guidebooks, and private records like letters and diaries, the text provides a look at both canonical and noncanonical authors. This work is an essential resource for those interested in art historiography and the cultural impact of art acquisition during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It offers a detailed view of how visual culture shaped the literary landscape of the Romantic period.
